Hard water harming your hair? Here’s how to stop it! 

With luscious locks being a timeless symbol of health and beauty, ensuring the purity of the water they come into contact with is paramount. The term “hard water” might be thrown around frequently, but what does it truly signify? And is hard water bad for your hair? Let’s dive in. 

What is Hard Water? 

Hard water is simply water that’s rich in dissolved minerals, notably copper, magnesium, chlorine, and calcium. While our bodies might benefit from some of these minerals, our hair vehemently disagrees. Exposure to hard water can lead to build up, resulting in dryness and the stiffening of hair strands. 

The Effects of Hard Water on Hair 

The effects of hard water on hair are manifold. Over time, hair can become brittle, losing its natural bounce and becoming prone to tangling, increasing the likelihood of it becoming matted. For more insights on dealing with matted hair, here’s a dedicated article. Hard water can also tamper with the hair’s texture and lead to a gradual fading of its colour. Depending on where you reside, the hardness of water can vary considerably. It’s worthwhile to be informed about the water quality in your area and whether your shower system has an in-built filtration process.
